Apr 4, 2023



Hollywood, California Apr 4, 2023 (Issuewire.com) - Tunafish Jones, the electrifying band that has been capturing hearts and minds with their extraordinary music, has released a single and music video titled "No More Radio." The band, known for their energetic performances and powerful vocals, has once again delivered a song that is sure to become a hit among fans and attract new listeners.

Tunafish Jones comprises three talented musicians - Mars McCracken, the lead singer of the group, showcases a unique vocal style that blends rock, jazz, blues, and soul. Her charismatic stage presence and passionate performances are backed by gifted musicians Bruce McCracken, on guitar and synthesizers, and Frank Lightell on alto, tenor, soprano saxophone, and flute.

Tunafish Jones is known for their multifaceted sound and memorable performances, and lead singer Mars McCracken helps set them apart. With a powerful voice that can range from soulful crooning to fierce belting, McCracken commands the stage and captivates audiences with every performance. But what many fans may not realize is that McCracken is also an accomplished songwriter, with a gift for crafting lyrics that are both poignant and playful. Whether she's singing about love, loss, justice, or the joys of living life to the fullest, McCracken's words have a way of resonating deeply with listeners, making Tunafish Jones a band that is unforgettable.

In the past year, the band released thirteen singles and three music videos. Lead singer and songwriter Mars McCracken produced and edited all the band's music videos. In addition to these musical accomplishments, she also produced and edited a feature-length movie titled "Stanley Stanton," which can be viewed on Amazon Prime Video. The original soundtrack is performed by Tunafish Jones. McCracken's artistic vision and zeal for storytelling shine through in both the film and the music videos.

Their popular release, "No More Radio," is a catchy song that exemplifies the band's skill in crafting music that is both entertaining and thought-provoking. The lyrics are a commentary on the state of the music industry and the impact that mainstream media has on the creative process. Pushing the boundaries of music, the Tunafish Jones "sound" is authentic and eclectic, inspiring listeners to break away from the commercialized music dominating the airwaves and seek out this talented group that creates music from the heart.

"Our music follows its own path," Mars McCracken has said. "We are not a blues band, a jazz band, a pop band, or a country band. We are Tunafish Jones doing whatever moves and grooves us at the moment." This spirit is reflected in their newest release "Loving You" and continues to resonate with their loyal fans who truly appreciate the band's uniqueness and originality.

"No More Radio '' is now available on all major music platforms, and fans can watch the song's official music video on the Tunafish Jones YouTube Channel. For more information about the band and their music, visit their website at www.tunafishjones.com

Influenced early on by jazz elite Ella Fitzgerald, Della Reese, Miles Davis, Gerry Mulligan, composer Leonard Bernstein, and funk master James Brown, Mars envisioned a band that could mesh together the free for all hilarity of a night at a juke joint with the profundity of a symphonic odyssey.

Sabalenka knocked out of China Open

BEIJING — Second-ranked Aryna Sabalenka was bundled out in the third round of the China Open in straight sets by the Czech Republic's Nikola Bartunkova on Sunday. The No. 34-ranked Bartunkova defeated the four-time Grand Slam champion 6-4, 6-3 in just over an hour and a half leaving the tournament without its two top seeds in the first week. Newly-crowned world No. 1 Elena Rybakina was ousted from the tournament on Saturday and will now be joined by Sabalenka in exiting WTA-1000 event in Beijing early. Sabalenka, who was denied a three-peat at the US Open last month by Rybakina, squandered five break points in the first set as her historic struggles in Beijing continued. The 28-year-old Belorussian has never progressed past the quarterfinals at the event. “First of all, I focused on myself, to be calm,” Bartunkova said. “And Aryna, she’s great, she’s a legend, she’s a Grand Slam champion. So, yeah, I’m really happy that I won the match... I’m not a girl who celebrates too much.” Bartunkova will next play 24-year-old Sinja Kraus of Austria, who earlier defeated Dayana Yastremska 6-1, 6-4. Fifth-ranked Mirra Andreeva eased into the fourth round with a 6-4, 6-1 victory over Polina Kudermetova. This year's French Open winner fired six aces and took five of her seven break point opportunities to overwhelm her Uzbek opponent in just in 68 minutes. In the men’s tournament, Hubert Hurkacz beat Karen Khachanov 7-6 (2) 6-2 to make the final four. Later Sunday, top seed and U.S. Open champion Alexander Zverev plays his quarterfinal match against Novak Djokovic.

Asian Games set to close

NAGOYA — The Asian Games in Japan will close later Sunday after a fortnight of record-smashing displays from young stars, but marred by mix-ups, patchy crowds and accusations of mismanagement. More than 17,000 athletes and officials, a bigger number than the Olympics, descended on Nagoya and Aichi prefecture for the continent's premier sporting spectacular. Chinese swimming sensation Yu Zidi, just 13, stole the show in the pool with three gold medals, all in Games-record times. She looks set to be a major medal threat at the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics. The schoolgirl was named a Games MVP on Sunday to cap an extraordinary showing that saw her scorch to gold in the 200m butterfly and do the 200m-400m individual medley double. But for that all that, the shy teenager said: "I don't think I am what people describe as a prodigy." Also in the pool, Japanese swimmer Shin Ohashi, himself only 17, smashed the men's 200m breaststroke world record to delight the home crowd. In athletics, where rain tumbled down over several days, Thai sprinter Puripol Boonson did the 100m-200m double and was named men's MVP. "This time there were a lot of global athletes at this event, so the MVP gives me a lot of confidence that I can make the podium in LA," the 20-year-old said. 'Failure grade' With the hours ticking down to the closing ceremony, when Japan will hand over the baton to Doha, top officials were on the defensive. Olympic Council of Asia director general Husain Al-Musallam said "numbers are facts," pointing to 50 world records broken at the Games since they opened on September 19. "The athletes cannot perform if they don't sleep good, the athletes cannot perform if they don't have good transportation," he said. This 20th edition of the Games, which were first contested in 1951, did not have a traditional athletes' village in a bid to save money. Instead, participants were housed in wooden temporary units, on a cruise ship and in hotels. Organizers said this was a template for future multi-sports events. But it came with issues, with some teams complaining the units were too cramped and the beds too short. More than that, the ballooning numbers of athletes and officials meant there were not enough beds for everyone. One Thai Olympic official told AFP it was "like musical chairs." The sport, including a blockbuster cricket final won by India against arch-rivals Pakistan, did sometimes shine through. North Korean weightlifter Ri Song Gum, a 140cm (4ft 7in) pocket powerhouse, set three new world marks in one day for gold. But problems kept coming too, including organizers playing North Korea's national anthem for the South Korean hockey team. There were athletes' buses that did not turn up when they should, or did not arrive at all. Two teams were sent to the wrong venue, delaying a volleyball match. "If I were to give them a grade, it would be an F," Ryu Seung-min, president of the Korean Sport and Olympic Committee, said. Games organizers were on the back foot as well over attendances, with the opening ceremony taking place in front of thousands of empty seats. At the women's football semi-final between hosts Japan and South Korea there were 998 spectators in a 50,000 stadium. Boy history-maker Japanese Olympic Committee president Seiko Hashimoto admitted that "there were many problems," but said the country wants to host more international events in future. She said bad weather had turned some spectators off, but was eager to point out that some sports were well attended. About 30,000 saw South Korea beat Japan 1-0 to clinch men's football gold, although the occasion was tarnished somewhat when the South Korean flag failed to go up in the victory ceremony. The hosts finished with 83 golds, a distant second in the medals table behind China with 169. Japan's tally included gold for Yuki Kurihara, who won an eSports competition aged 11, believed to make him the youngest Games champion in history. Several sports with ambitions of making the Olympics made their debut, including padel, MMA and virtual taekwondo.
